Sydney and Eleanor seem to like the town well enough, Constance can't get behind it. The hotel is weird, it's owner is a little off and everyone she comes across just doesn't seem right. Constance just wants to go home But all thoughts of going home are put on hold when Eleanor scores herself a date with a local hottie, only for it to end up with her stumbling across a dead body. Naturally, Constance lends her hand to the case, wanting to ensure that Eleanor isn't convicted in any way. And besides, what better way to kill time than a quick investigation?What starts off as a relatively normal murder case becomes more and more complex as random bits of evidence that have no noticeable link to one another begin to pile up.
